The former FSB officer and Russian army veteran - Igor Vsevolodovich Girkin- publicly admitted that without him & his men russia would've failed both invasions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Girkin https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2014/11/21/russias-igor-strelkov-i-am-responsible-for-war-in-eastern-ukraine-a41598 https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20230829-igor-girkin-rebel-donbas-leader-turned-kremlin-critic
